Don't worry, Frenkie has given ETH his word through numerous phone calls behind the scenes that he's will join him in January.

I’m looking forward to an inquest in this one. Everything about it has been so weird.

Today a club has offered more than €100m for Frenkie.

Wasn't the deal with barca already a done deal? Problem was with the player and his missing salary from leverlona?

There were credible links throughout till the end.

All has dried up for Frenkie.
It was the same amount of hints as with the FDJ situation here. It was part of the plan to create a buzz around information and misinformation. But it was mostly nothing concrete until the Adidas ad.

I can see some parallels here.

Feck him, he's a coward, a wimp.. weak mentality. Enjoy the bench, twat.
I must admit, I'm a complete muppet and FDJ fanboi but I have concerns over his mentality given his desire to stay at that tin-pot club where hes being treated like a complete fool by his employers, especially when his teammates are getting robbed and under threat of home invasions the entire time. EVERYONE who goes to barcelona gets pickpocketed or stuff stolen from them at some point there, I just dont get the attraction.

When did people start to suspect it was off? I was hopeful the whole time but deep down knew it wouldn’t happen the moment we agreed a deal but no movement happened 1-2 days after.

:lol: its like the end of the night at the club and theres a few scrags left looking for a ride and theres three dodgy birds left and one of them might be a bloke. The man of the moment is laying on a beach laughing his head off and he never even showed up to the party in the first place...in fact he posted back the invite fecking months ago. His jilted ex has left the club with two top class Brazilians and everyone else fecked off hours ago. @Berbaclass did you save money?

When Mitten and the Athletic were saying he doesn't want to leave Barcelona the city, he's a lifelong fan, grew up holidaying there, essentially it's his dream to play for them.

what United offered back in July plus the deferred wages is about that number. Could be us, Chelsea.

Was obvious quite early on that he wasn’t leaving, if we get CL football and he joins next season then fair play because it’s who ETH wants to be build his midfield around
But if he doesn’t sign then it’s fail against ETH, he might as well of brought someone else in this window, had a fully functioning midfield and been able to control games against the likes of Southampton

For all we know he already signed by united and sent back to barca on loan till next summer. Explains the radio silence, explains the recent london visits. Everything falls in place now.

WEEEKS ago when muppets like Goldbridge were saying it was 95% deal done but nothing seemed to be happenning with it. If it was on it would have been done.

My final post of many in this thread

Embarrassing to not get him after this saga

However, I can imagine in May / June 2023 this will have a revival (in a new thread)

See you then !

It’s been fun, at times. Summer in the park waiting for De Jong to be official.

Prefer Casemiro anyway

Someone explain to me how a transfer is ever embarrassing because I don’t get it

Wrap it up boys, time to go home.

Just hoping he doesn’t reduce his salary now.. take them for everything they’ve got.

Is there enough gas left in the tank to reach 2000 pages before the window shuts?

Frenkie will be pissed if you don't. Just saying.
we should all agree to not post past page 1999; this thread would then stand as a fitting monument to our disappointment and underachievement.

It's far from it. We acted and brought in Casemiro. Obviously the door was still open for him, but it isn't like we sat there looking at a telephone waiting his call.
